OFF: Nice post Captain and CDR Ford. But I really hope to hear from 
some of you who haven't written in along time. Just remember we have 
to get this mission going from all points of view, so it would be 
great to hear from you. And to be honest, I love writing, just don't 
want to have to read my own post, when I could be reading some of 
yours!

ON:

LOCATION: {Sick Bay}

Captain: =^= McCloud to Tolbin. =^=

Tolbin: =^= Tolbin here, whats up Captain? =^=

Captain: =^= If your not too busy, I would like for you to come down 
and help over see the men working on the torpedos. I want to make 
sure it gets done right, and before time, and I can trust that you 
will make it happen! =^=

Tolbin: =^= I sure will, if I have to get a whip and chain to make 
it happen. =^= :: She looks at me, and give me a wink and smile. ::

Captain: =^= Now, I don't know about that, poor Mr. Redroi already 
has strange feelings towards you, we don't need more crew members 
feeling the same way. =^=

Tolbin: =^= Well, whatever works! You know me. =^=

Captain: =^= Thats what I'm worried about. Now go have some fun. 
McCloud out. =^=

Tolbin: "Listen Counselor, if Dr. Kelley doesn't get a chance to 
speak with Dr. Fredricks before I see her myself, then I will talk to 
her about the status of your health. But Crystal, you have to 
realize that no one on this ship wants to release you from here until 
we know that you are up to par. We can't have a sick Counselor 
running around the ship. You have been through alot, you almost met 
our maker, and that is just something we can't forget. We want you 
back on your feet, helping us to defeat these aliens, but the only 
that is going to happen is if work with the Doctors on this ship. 
Just like you would want your patients working with you. Do you 
understand me?"

Jade: "Yes ma'am. I understand, but I have patients who need me."

Tolbin: "They will just have to survive without you for a few days."

Jade: "Okay."

Tolbin: "Well I have to go, and whip these boys into shape."

:: Tolbin and Jade laugh together. ::

Tolbin: :: As she is walking out of Sick Bay, she turns around to 
say...:: "I will see what I can do about getting you a cup of latte."

Jade: "Thank you."

:: She departs to find what kind of mess the boys were up too. ::

:: I sit there and think about all the people that is going to be 
lined up outside my office. ::

:: I wondered how Ingoldo was doing. He is a very strong man, I 
think that he going to be fine, once he faces his own enter demons, 
which we all have, we just have to find them and face them. That is 
the key to ones self happiness. ::

Jade: :: Says outloud. :: "Okay, I am tired of laying here, I have 
to get up."

:: I begin to push my self up from the bed, just when..... ::

OFF: Okay people I am leaving it open, someone start something. 
Anything, I just want to hear from you guys!
